Whether you are an employer or employee, the surge in employment related issues arising out of the current economic crisis can have a dramatic impact on your life. In response to this growing problem, Molesworths Bright Clegg Solicitors have taken steps to expand their Employment Department with the addition of an experienced employment lawyer who has previously represented a large Trade Union in Manchester, and will now assist Mr Rhodes in running the Employment Department.

Molesworths, in its bid to assist employees has become the first firm in Rochdale to introduce ‘No Win No Fee’ agreements for employees wishing to bring employment claims. These agreements cover initial advice through to case preparation and representation at the Employment Tribunal.

To assist employers, Molesworths offer an ‘Employment Law Health check’, a critical analysis to ensure that employment contracts, employee handbooks, policies and procedures all comply with the latest employment legislation, with any errors being remedied by an experienced employment lawyer to reduce the risk of employers facing a claim in the Employment Tribunal.

• Employment Contracts – Terms and Conditions

• A telephone help-line is available in times of crisis, offering support and ‘bridge building’ at times of internal disputes.
